Changing an ACC Database Password

When a database is created in the Account Control Center (ACC), a random database password is generated for it. If you ever want to connect to your database, you will need to know the password. Luckily, it’s easy to change the password for the ACC - you don’t even need to know the prior password.

This will only change the password for the selected database.
